Hi all, I have this error in my log: Jan 20 03:09:41 uranus kernel: kernel/workqueue.c:82: spin_is_locked on uninitialized spinlock 41f40140.

Kernel: 2.6.9-1.681_FC3 #1 Thu Nov 18 15:10:10 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Machine: IBM ThinkPad T42, 1 GB RAM, booted with vga=792 which switches frame buffers on. I'm using this kernel since all newer kernels crash (panic) within 4 hours of running, the 2.6.10 kernels panic at boot. Any idea what is causing this?
